Long At wits end Poems

(strike while the iron's hot, else...
up prize cold hard steel Goldfinger
rewind: the following case in point).

Believe me you (stranger out there
along the information super highway),
perhaps feeling comfortably numb,
which I (personally experiencing futility)

vainly searching for Nirvana)...

Baneful brickbats begat grievous barrier

Tell tale indelible woe y'all
privy to learn yours truly harbors
traces of the masterful
impregnable prepubescent wall
still extant scads of decades since
complex edifice erected to force tall
adolescence - permanently leaving me, 
(a poor...

Ta'likra
was a most stubborn slave
He loved to rattle the chain
It was a sound of pure defiance
that echoed across the lush plantation terrain

Son of Antuk
had a pygmy burning bush spirit
He seethed silently
as the lashes dug deep...

Traces of the masterful
impregnable prepubescent wall
still extant scads of decades since
complex edifice erected to force tall
permanently leaving me unmoored,
marooned, and furloughed ready for pall
bearers to spill soil upon my
then emaciated stick figure overall,

an unlovely bag...

The church bells tolled
In the steeple,
Loud and shrill,
'Midst the avalanche of people;
The choir on the corner
Sang of angels, babes, and sugar plums
While shoppers, at wits end,
Swore that they should never have come.

Someone said, "Merry Christmas,"
The...

I tried to write a song like John Denver would have done
Thought the way to do it was to emulate each one
Went to Colorado for a Rocky Mountain High
Found heaven near Shenandoah, but inspiration still...

Lonely, empty, void and feeling blue,
Like I just don't know what to do.
I have a large family, I've got many friends,
Yet it seems just like I am at wits end.

I am seeking and searching for...

The desire so strong to have a great night’s sleep
The shortcomings are how one feels when the morning greets?

An old lost companion who resides in the thickness of night
That presence becomes more elusive and my...

Why is it Return On Investments
when one’s only Interest is in Returns,
to achieve my end, when I see lethargy
I tag my team as lacking in Synergy.

In my mad pursuit masked as Goals, I drive my...

I was once six  months old and full of fun, with a blink of an eye, I was suddenly one.  
I know I was a handful, and at times you wondered what to...

I've heard it all my life: Wahoo!
"Sticks and stones may break your bones
but words will never hurt you."  
It’s all in the accents and tones.

"A toodlerump! Jonathan Blasterscripp!”
yelled a classmate on the playground.
I’d slid...

“Oh weary hermit, etch these words in stone ~
God is within, we never walk alone”
~ quote by poet


Dear God, give us our joy back;
our life’s reached a cul-de-sac,
with heart caught in desire’s net,
our bankrupt soul’s...

That beast that prowls and lurks
Always on the doors opposite side
Primeval and fetid scents rising
For it is here evil resides
Locked within these crumbling walls
Or so I have come to believe
In these halls distant and aloof
Ill-omened...

Fire raged through heavy wooded terrain,  
Blizzard hit the panhandle hard,   
Bad windstorm slammed the western plains,   
Mudslides hid hundreds of backyards.   
 
Brutal sandstorm swept through arid...

I'm really feeling sad for folks
they're almost at wits end
Don't seem to care if Cops get shot
(that's those you won't defend)

Notice you aren't yelling loud
for christians, (just the rest)
Let someone say an unkind thing
about muslims?...

So here I am again
in redundancy I'll say hello
living life behind this screen
dreaming of a world most obscene

I wait, eager for response
Clicking refresh once more
My world inside a spider's web
in this fantasy I'm still no...

Locating door D-75
Of a large colony on a drive,
At last close, ah D-74!
I must be right at destiny’s door.
But the next turns out B-68!!
What, lost at the very Pearly Gate?
So I felt midway through my...
